A Very Important Date
Setting Wedding Date
I wasn’t ready to hit the ground running once we got engaged—I wanted to chill out and soak in the engagement. But I also knew we didn’t want a super long engagement. After all, we’ve already been together six years. Why wait longer at this point"

This turned out to be a little more complicated than expected because my sister’s in med school, doing rotations, and has to be available to work on weekends. Everyone else’s schedule was a bit more open…especially after the holidays, so we narrowed things down to late winter/early spring 2017.
Then we found out my dad’s gonna be in India for three weeks in ...
